Our team are experts at installing and maintaining production cells. For a client in Georgia, JDI’s Electrical Services Team was tasked to rework and install a new paint cell for their plant operation’s existing line. The project team had little time to quote and plan but were able to pull together the project and field team quickly and decide on a plan. The robotic arm had to be connected to existing power, which required moving the power supply so that the new ABB control panel had better placement. To set the robot up for connection we installed 1200 FT of control wire, additional grounding, and a new cable tray.
The 2-ton robotic arm required us to design our own rigging system to support the movement of the arm into its operation space. When placing it, we had to precisely align the robot into place, then make sure the new light curtain and fencing were in their proper positions to keep operators and maintenance safe.
